Guys, I have done it. The 4K-pilot is finished. It was rendered at 15 Mbps in 4:3 format at a display size of 2846x2160p (4:3).

First: Congratulations!

I also used the original NTSC audio and adapted to the PAL-running time while maintaining the original pitch; also, I have pitch corrected the german audio so the PAL-Speedup has been taken care of (no more high pitched voices).

Critics: (as always…)

  1. For the German sound there is no pitch to correct if you leave it at 25fps. Or do I misunderstand? It is originally made for 25fps, and your result is also 25fps. Why correct?
  2. As I said before: You should simply slow down Video to 23.976, and the English audio will fit.
  3. IF you do so, THEN the German audio you would have to slow down, too, and in this case you should pitch correct it about 1/4 to 1/2 tone up.

By the way: These pitch corrections always produce a quality loss, even with the best algorithms, be aware of that fact.
